MINNEAPOLIS – A Rochester man pleaded guilty in federal court as the kingpin in a southeast Minnesota meth ring. The plea of Jerry Lee Milliken, 40, was only to one count of meth possession, although he is described in court documents as the ringleader in a large-scale operation based in Rochester with a meth pipeline from Kansas City and sub-distributors through southeast Minnesota. Because of previous drugs and weapons convictions, Milliken faces life in prison. His rap sheet includes illegal weapons and stolen goods charges n 2020 in Wabasha.
